起步區(qū)作為雄安新區(qū)主城區(qū),肩負著集中承接北京非首都功能疏解的時代重任。起步區(qū)規(guī)劃面積約198平方公里。未來,起步區(qū)將是北京疏解出的高校、科研院所、醫(yī)療機構(gòu)、企業(yè)總部、金融機構(gòu)、事業(yè)單位等的集中承載區(qū)。
The start-up area will be part of the Xiongan city proper, which will cover 198 square km. Designed for taking over Beijing's functions nonessential to its role as the national capital, the city proper will be a new home for Beijing's colleges, research institutes, hospitals, business headquarters, and financial and public institutions.

建設(shè)雄安新區(qū)是千年大計。新區(qū)首先就要新在規(guī)劃、建設(shè)的理念上,要體現(xiàn)出前瞻性、引領(lǐng)性。
The establishment of the Xiongan New Area is a strategy crucial for a millennium to come. The new area is supposed to showcase prospective and leading new ideas in both planning and construction.

以疏解北京非首都功能為“牛鼻子”推動京津冀協(xié)同發(fā)展,高起點規(guī)劃、高標準建設(shè)雄安新區(qū)。
We will relieve Beijing of functions nonessential to its role as the capital and use this effort to drive the coordinated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region; and we will develop forward-looking plans and adopt high standards for building the Xiongan New Area.
